People with disabilities rely on #HCBS to stay in their communities & out of congregate settings. But labor shortages have contributed to long waitlists that have families facing tough decisions. Tell Congress #CareCantWait for these essential services! p2a.co/IAFTwCz?p2asource=tw-…

Vaccines help protect you from serious COVID-19 symptoms, but they also help protect vulnerable neighbors or family. A big thank you to DSPs around Illinois who are vaccinated to protect themselves and the people they care for. #thisisourshot #allinillinois

Take 30 seconds to tell state leaders that the State budget must appropriate funds that make a meaningful investment in the community system and its frontline workers – as recommended by the Guidehouse Rate Study. Go to theydeservemore.com/take-act… to take action. #TheyDeserveMore
